Google+ for Android gets prettier, bigger cover photos

Google has just announced a new version of its Google+ client for Android with a handful of new features. Google+ intends to change your perception about the social networks and the mobile client is an important piece in this strategy.

The Android version of Google+ brings many of the features of its desktop counterpart to your smartphone with an interface tailored to mobile (touch) devices that is efficient, clean, and intuitive. Following are the changes introduced in this version.

What's in this version:

Set bigger cover photos, with a better aspect ratio

Support for strikethrough formatting

Additional bug fixes and performance improvements

The new version is awaiting you over in the Google Play Store (please, be patient if you can't find the update yet - it should be available shortly everywhere). We'd also like to hear from you about the changes by posting your thoughts in the comments section below.
